There used to be just me.
Five.
Outwardly happy,
Sadness prevailed.
Wandering,
Wondering
Where should I be?
Ten
My heart never did doubt.
Trusting the feeling
Knowing my story was bigger

Then there was Him.
Gentle, smart,
Coolest at school
Fifteen.
We watched movies,
We smoked,
We held on without words
Trusting the feeling,
Knowing our story was bigger.

She came in and shifted our world
Changing the light,
Filling the cracks with golden joy,
Birthing me Mama.
Thirty.
The sadness came back, for a while
He and I, strangers.
growing as separate branches,
We fall.
We hold on,
Truth matters.
Trusting the feeling,
Knowing our story is bigger.

Growing deep in my belly,
She grounds us in love,
A divine whisper
Dream without fear..
Only Love is real
Thrive.
Thirtyfive
Our call to adventure
To break free,
Together.
We leap,
Trusting the feeling,
Knowing our story is bigger.

A plot twist!
He’s coming,
But we always knew,
Our Son~shine would be true
Plans dissolved,
Sadness rewritten.
What do we do now?
The Universe spoke from the
Seed of my womb
Let go.
Trust.
Heal.
Know.

There are five of us now.
Never quiet,
Always full.
Sadness be still,
Happiness prevails
Trusting the feeling.
Knowing our story is bigger.
